After a long period of exploration and accumulation, the global productization process of harvesting robot is accelerating. With the increasingly irreplaceable demand for robotic harvesting in agricultural production in China, many enterprises have entered the market and gradually opened up the production and sales. However, insufficient work efficiency has become the core bottleneck for its comprehensive industrialization and production applications. Based on the analysis of the efficiency status of harvesting robots in China, the technology modes and the multi-arm approach of efficiency improvement were summarized. And with the rapid development of agricultural harvesting technology in the future, multi-arm high-speed simultaneous harvesting would become a global trend. On the basis of summarizing the development status of arm design, vision technology, task and motion planning technology of multi-arm harvesting robots, the development trend and goals of the industrialization of harvesting robots were proposed. It was believed that the technological direction for the industrialization of harvesting robots would shift from hand-eye high-precision positioning to strong comprehensive tolerance capability, from specialized customized technology model to universal modular technology solution, and from complex human involvement in professional equipment to an easy-to-use technology system for household products.
